TERRA-192

LMARQ as Architects

Implanted in the central sector of the Terralagos neighborhood, Canning, Province of Buenos Aires. On a trapezoidal-shaped lot, the front being the most generous measure of the development of the land.
The volumetry honestly reflects the housing program, resolved with two prisms that are easy to visualize, perforated by large voids. The lower volume contains the public program and the upper volume the private program.

The voids are key points in the assembly of the floors, not only because they separate part of the program in a harmonious way, but also because they provide the space with lighting, ventilation, and visuals. These voids are resolved with interior courtyards with important vegetation.
Throughout the entire project, the spatial integration of the exterior and interior was sought, without losing privacy. This is resolved with the interplay of planes, voids and patios.

As for the structural and material resolution of the project, a complex simplicity was sought, and at the same time brutal honesty, using concrete as the predominant material.
